RJ Nowling updated BIGTOP-2080:
-------------------------------
    Attachment: BIGTOP-2080.1.patch

Removes the Scala toolchain module.  Tested by building the Spark RPM -- still need to test Kafka but {{services.gradle.org}} seems down at the moment, receiving timeouts.  I'll test Kafka when {{services.gradle.org}} is back up.

> Older versions of Spark needed Scala to be installed separately but not anymore.  For a while, Spark and Kafka have pulled down a copy of the Scala compiler and libraries through Maven -- BigPetStore does the same through the Groovy Scala plugin.
> We may be able to drop the Scala installation in the Bigtop toolchain.  We should investigate this.
